Matt Rantanen (Cree, Sami) describing the outcomes of the #tribalbroadbandbootcamp series. Despite all of the technical solutions, when it comes to internet for tribes, "a human network is the most valuable tool." Sharing knowledge, build in friendship.

@vmbrasseur A name, is a Name… yes there is pain in changing it. However, the opportunity to model respect, authenticity and courageous #leadership will go a long way! #ApacheSoftwareFoundation should choose another name, preferably with consulting from #nativesintech and make this an event worth commemorating.

I stand with Native Americans calling for an end to the use of their identities as mascotry for The Apache Software Foundation.

The ASF is the most prolific, prestigious, and successful open source foundation.

It's time to parlay that success into doing right by marginalized people, and act in accordance with the foundation's own Code of Conduct.

I look forward to supporting everyone through this necessary transformation.

ASF and “Native”-themed Mascotry

ASF has been “playing Indian” for decades. There is no respectful way to appropriate and it’s long past the time for ASF to change its name and branding.

Native technologists call for the Apache® Software Foundation to change its name.

I am not Indigenous, but I join their request in allyship.

Apache® Appropriation

It is not uncommon to learn about non-Indigenous entities appropriating Indigenous culture but none of them are as large, prestigious, nor well-known as The Apache® Software Foundation is in software circles.
